About the Event
Are you on one of the final drafts of your screenplay? Are you looking for feedback from peers and opportunities to develop it further? Apply to take part in WFTV’s Table Read Club for the opportunity to have your screenplay read out loud.
Back by popular demand, we’ll be running a Table Read Club for a new cohort of writers and actors every Thursday morning from 23 June until 28 July 2022.
A table read is an important part of the writing process which can highlight strengths and weaknesses in your work, flag plot holes and be a chance to bring your script to life. Meeting online every Thursday over six weeks, the group will take it in turns to read excerpts from a members’ screenplay. Members can share their script in whichever way they feel suitable, whether that’s in advance of the meeting or during the session.
This is an opportunity to share your work in a safe and collaborative space, get feedback from peers and help sharpen your screenwriting skills.
We’re also looking for actors to deliver the readings. So, if you’re an actor looking for an opportunity to flex your muscles and read fresh, new work to an audience - join us!
Writers joining the group may also be asked to participate in reading extra parts.
Table Read Club is only open to writers and actors who have not previously taken part in a group in 2021 or 2022. By registering your interest for this event, you commit to take part in each session every Thursday morning from 10am-11:30am over the course of five weeks.
